Ladies
and Gentlemen:

Pursuant
to Rule 477 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Bontan Corporation
Inc. (the “Company”) requests the withdrawal of its Registration Statement on
Form F-1 (File No. 333-165003) (the “Registration Statement”) that was filed on
February 22, 2010. No securities have been sold pursuant to the Registration
Statement.
The
Registration Statement was inadvertently filed on EDGAR as a new registration
statement when it should have been filed as an amendment to a previously filed
registration statement on Form F-1 (File No. 333-164935) (the “Original
Registration Statement”). The Company intends to file an amendment to
the Original Registration Statement as soon as possible to include the exhibits
that were filed with the Registration Statement.
If you
have any questions relating to this letter, please call Jeffrey C. Robbins of
Messerli & Kramer P.A. at (612) 672-3600.
Very
truly yours,
BONTAN
CORPORATION INC.
